Many months ago, I was given the opportunity to sample two of Hail Merry’s newest additions to the family. One of the flavors was strawberry and it really knocked my socks off. Problem is, I have yet to see them in our stores!!

Like any self respecting food blogger…I set about making my own version.

Instructions

Process the ingredients for 2-3 minutes until the shredded coconut beings to break down. Depending on how textured you like it, as long as the ingredients are well incorporated, the will hold together well.

Drop the batter, about 2-3 teaspoons worth onto a lined cookie sheet. I used my small cookie scoop.

Place in the fridge or freezer to harden for 10-20 minutes.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.

Hi Tessa! This macaroons look delicious. I love that they are raw and paleo. They would make great treats for the kids. Thank you for sharing this with us for last week’s Let’s Get Real Link Party. You are my featured blogger this week. Please be sure to join us again when the party goes live on Thursday at 5pm EST

These look beautiful, Tessa, and I love that they are no bake! What a delicious treat. Pinning and sharing. Thank you for being a part of the Hearth and Soul hop.April J Harris recently posted…The Country Living Christmas Fair 2015

I know this comment is old, but in case anyone else comes across this and is wondering….

I didn’t have freeze-dried strawberries, so I tried first with dried strawberries. Definitely didn’t work – they wouldn’t blend. Then I tried fresh strawberries (2 large ones) by decreasing the liquid and adding psyllium husk. While the batter was pink, it was still too watery and hardly had strawberry flavor. Only do this recipe with freeze-dried!

Tessa, these look perfect for the AIP Recipe Roundtable, if you care to share. They look gorgeous AND delicious. I found the recipe on Real Food Forager’s list of 2013 favorites. I hope you had a great holiday, and 2014 is the best yet.Eileen @ Phoenix Helix recently posted…Paleo AIP Recipe Roundtable #8

Oh my goodness, thank you!!! I am so happy to see this recipe that I could cry. I love the Hail Merry chocolate macaroons, but I am allergic to tree nuts so I have been unable to try their DELICIOUS looking strawberry flavor. Will be making these tomorrow <3

These look so neat, and btw your chocolate hail mary knock-offs are totally my go to quick dessert and my in-laws love when I make them! Thanks so much for sharing this on Waste Not Want Not Wednesday, I’ve pinned it.

Hi Tessa! So happy to have followed you over from Sunday Snippets. These macaroons take my macaroons to a whole new level with the inclusion of strawberries! Yum! Will definitely check out your other recipes!

These look WONDERFUL! I actually have a bag of the freeze dried strawberries in my cupboard (from one of the Urban Posers’s strawberry frosting recipes). I have to the say, the freeze dried strawberries pack a GREAT strawberry flavor. I can’t wait to make these. Of course, I also have all the other ingredients. Can you guess what’s for snack this week? 🙂

Hi Justy…I did not soften mine..the few minutes in the processor whipped that coconut oil into submission (aka, the heat from processing melts it up nicely! No big deal to use melted if you prefer…it will take longer to solidify is all!

Those look delish! I love macaroons of any sort, and berry and coconut? Winner combo in my book! 🙂

I was wondering if you would be willing to link-up this and any other recipe/post that is “spring” themed to our Spring Fling, Blogger-Style! link-up? (You can find it on Natural and Free.) It would be perfect! I understand if you can’t, but thought I’d ask. Thanks. 🙂
